Hi,
I have quite a big number of searches and views within an app, and manage them within the "searches & Reports" panel of the manager is not very convenient. I would really like to create sub-folders within the manager view to sort searches and views.
Is there any way to actually do it?
Note that I don't ask how to sort things in the drop down menu within the search app, but really in the "manager/Searches and reports" view (and in the "user interface/views" too).
Thanks!
EDIT
My question was maybe not clear enough. My need is to organize searches and view internally. Nothing should show up in the application as it is an end-user app, and it should only contains dashboards and stuff, no searches cause end-user don't even know the splunk syntax.
I would love to have a finer granularity on how searches are organized in the manager. Which means not only by application, but also by type, subtype etc. This is just for me, because actually what I am doing is having a naming convention that puts all searches related close one to each other, like this:
prod_summary_relative time
prod_summary_log by mn
prod_summary_ip by hour
prod_segment_country
prod_segment_browserName
draft_segment_session time
etc...
This is very inconvenient because I can't see all the searches related (like all summary search) at once in the manager (have around 50, and should end up with more that 200)
I have two idea that may work:
1°) try to customize the default manager view of splunk, but it is really complicated as the view is generated from js code and is not a static html page.
2°) create a custom app called search manager where I will make dashboards and stuff with what I want, but it may take a some time.
I can't believe that nobody never had this problem in a big application, so I will continue to investigate, but any clue would be greatly appreciated.
